What You’re Paying for with Shreveport LASIK

  • Post-operative exams for a year after the procedure to ensure that your eyes heal properly, and your vision correction is a lasting success.
  • Procedure enhancement coverage within the first year after surgery to protect your investment and provide peace of mind.

The Best Ways to Pay For LASIK

LASIK is far more affordable than a lifetime of prescription eyewear, and it offers a peace of mind and freedom from eyewear that you can’t put a price on.

But we know that price does matter — to us, a great patient experience doesn’t just mean expert treatment, it also means affordable care. We’re aware that LASIK is a larger initial investment than a year of glasses or contacts, and we want to help make paying for this life-changing procedure as easy as possible

LASIK and Insurance Coverage

LASIK is a bit more complicated when it comes to insurance coverage than other eye surgeries, such as cataract surgery, which are deemed “medically necessary.” LASIK, and other refractive eye surgeries like PRK, are generally considered to be “elective” by insurance companies. This usually means that insurance won’t cover these surgeries, or may only offer little financial assistance.

However, this is slowly changing. Some insurance companies are coming around to the idea that LASIK saves them money over time as well, just as it saves our patients money, and are more likely to help cover LASIK. Every insurance provider, and plan, is different: we recommend that you contact your provider directly to ask about their LASIK coverage.

 

HSA and FSA for LASIK

One way that patients often choose to help cover their Shreveport LASIK surgery is with Health Savings Accounts (HSA) or Flex Spending Accounts (FSA). These are specialized accounts used to set aside funds for qualifying healthcare purchases, like LASIK and a variety of other vision correction procedures offered at Lusk Eye Specialists.

We’re committed to helping you understand complex healthcare costs, and if you have any questions about HSA or FSA, we’re happy to help you find answers. Call our team at Lusk Eye Specialists at (318) 378-5594 to learn more and get any clarification you need.
